The customer service (hah!) agent said $39.99 was the best she could do, but she would check my account to see exactly when my current deal expired. She came back to say that I am currently on $14.99 until July 2016.

I have no idea how I got that rate, or who put me on it, but I now have it in writing (after two more phone calls and an on-line chat session) so all's well that ends well.

The DVD of this story is now available in the foyer, for just $39.99 per month.

Loved your post. Before you break out the champagne, I'd wait for your first bill.
Yeah, I know, you have it in writing. We'll keep fingers crossed...
